Giro 2018: Riders and teams

Edition 101 of the Giro d’Italia starts in Jerusalem on Friday, the 4th of May 2018. As in previous years, the line-up consists of 22 teams, although the peloton is reduced to 176 riders since the Grand Tour teams will field eight riders rather than nine from 2018 onwards. Title defender Tom Dumoulin, Chris Froome, Alejandro Valverde and Fabio Aru target the 2018 Giro d’Italia.(Slideshow route/profile)
